Well 'ello there!
I've been meaning to post for like...a week. Buttt just haven't gotton around to it...typical me eh?
So I got a call last Thursday evening, from Anna, the youth leader at the Presbyterian church, asking if I could house/dog sit for them on Friday until Tuesday night. Well I told her sure, so Friday after going to the dentist I packed up some stuff and headed to her house. It was nice cause my workplace is in the same town, and its a real small little town so I could just walk to work if I wanted. I really thought I wasn't going to have any problems, and I didn't really except for the first night. The dog I was watching is a chihuahua, I've met this dog before, several times and she had no problems with me. Well she did that night. I walked in the door and she went crazy, went to yapping at me and then went and ran underneath Anna and Kyle's bed and sat under there and barked, then when I went to try and get her out she growled and tried to bite me! This went on for about two hours. I would go in and try to lure her out and all I got was snarling and snapping. It was really bad too whenever it got real dark and I didn't have the light on and whenever I looked underneath the bed all I saw was these evil little glowing eyes, and white teeth snarling at me.
Geeze don't know what I ever did to her.
Well anyway after awhile I just left her alone and figured she'd come out whenever she was good and ready....I knew she needed to get out though, cause Anna and Kyle had left at 4 that morning, and it was about 6 in the evening. She didn't even end up coming out until 2:00 in the morning! I was laying on the couch asleep and then I hear her and wake up, then she comes and jumps up with me and just acts like she loves me.
After that little episode we were the best of friends and she just acted so happy whenever I came home. Such a strange little critter. That was pretty much the only going-ons. I wasn't ever able to get used to people driving by while I was trying to sleep, people would be going by at midnight! and not just one or two cars, and bunch! do people not believe in sleeping anymore? I mean my goodness.
Monday I went with my sister and her friend to go shopping. It was a fun trip, but we all got real tired and I didn't end up getting that much stuff. I'm pretty much a horrible shopper, and just really couldn't find anything I liked! Its very frustrating...but whatever. I went to Best Buy to look at cameras, and pretty much drooled over the Nikon D80 and Rebel Xti. I found the Rebel Xsi though and really liked it. I just couldn't decide though, I called my mom and had her look at it on Amazon to read reviews and see if it was any cheaper, and sure enough it was and had real good reviews too. Soo...I went home and orded it =) what can I say, just can't resist cameras and I've been wanting and SLR for quite some time. I got it in the mail Friday. I really like it, and am just trying to figure it all out right now. Wish there were more things to take pictures of out here...but I did go out yesterday and take some of the horses, mostly to just play with aperture, shutter speed and all that jazz. I think I'm going to really like it!
There is just so much to learn, think it is going to take me forever!
Oh and I got a new pickup! =) well not like a "new" pickup. But my brother got a new one, so I got his old one, this pretty little thing.
I kinda, sorta, like it a whole lot.
Well anyways, I have stuff that needs to be done, so I had better hop to it!

death by..... cinnamon rolls?
Today I had the day off...and I just didn't quite know what to do with myself... So today, I made.... cinnamon rolls!
What fun is cooking if you don't make smiley faces in the dough!
or...take pictures of yourself with the smiley face dough!
Hey, ya just got to have fun in life ok.
the end result.
{{stop drooling!!..hahaha}}
I'm definitely not an expert cinnamon roll maker, I pretty muchly managed to make a huge mess, and they things didn't want to cut, but we got it done.... they just ended up not being very pretty, and I just hoped they would taste better then they looked...ya know like its not what ya look like that matters, but whats inside...in this case...taste like ; )
Not only that, but I manged to seriously injure my poor little toe today...poor little guy, I stubbed it, and it bled underneath the nail and looked quite ugly and now it just hurts : (
mhhhmmmm....yes I have issues.

sumahh timeee
Crazy to think its almost already summer! In a few more weeks it will have been a full year since I went to Europe, whoa whoa whoa. I think this summer will be a fun one, need to go swimming....do a little fishing...go the river..well if you want to call it that...and maybe be a little dare devilish and jump off these rocks into the water = ) yup.
So I just pretty much figured I'd get on here and ramble about absolutely nothing...isn't that what I always do anyway??
Not just to much has been going on. I'm taking care of my daddy this weekend, while mama is off in the promised land ; ) I've got him taco salad stuff ready for dinner tomorrow, all he has to do is heat it up, since I won't be here. Think we'll have hamburgers tomorrow night... Jennifer, John and the baby may come over too = ) Saturday...I don't know...haven't planned that far ahead yet.
Other then that just been working, riding a couple colts and enjoying life! I haven't had my day off in several weeks, which is fine and all...but I think it'll be nice to get one sometime...not gonna lie. My bosses have just been busy, track has been going on and they have a boy graduating this year, so there's all the senior stuff too! But track will be over after this weekend, and graduation is Sunday... sooo maybe things will slow down a touch! at least until football season starts back up! haha. But its all been going good, finally getting the hang of more things so it makes it easier. I have this one guy I know that comes in nearly everyday to say hi to us, and give me a high five, haha. He is, without a doubt the finniest person in the world, seriously. I want so badly for this guy to be a comedian. He is one of those people who can be so hiliarious without even trying to be! or can be funny even when he's IS trying too...cause we all know those people who try to be funny...but...they just aren't. Yea... and I like funny people, drab, people who are serious all the time are just no fun to even be around. I like people who you walk away from feeling happy : )
Oohh andd I met this guy from New Zealand who came in the store the other day! I kind of like meeting foreigners, not gonna lie! haha.
So I'm still planning on heading to the beach this summer. I have yet to send my papers in yet...think I should probably fax those tomorrow.....
I'm pretty excited for going to San Leon in June though! I wasn't to sure about it at first, but am starting to looking more forward to it. We get to go the beach one day while we are there too! I'm pretty much feeling this beach stuff, think I just need to go live on it.
um..well my pickup is still not running
*sigh*
I have been driving out chevy pickup, kinda miss my little pickup. But hopefully it will be running soon.
And you know what, just now I got up and nearly killed myself by slipping on little peace of cooked potatoe that fell on the floor...yea cause I am just that good.
aye I am just going to end this torture post now before I decide to just delete it and not post for another few weeks.
